Guys,
For all people thinking of buying a 3 point implement made by ANY manufacturer, You should DO it NOW. I think there is a HUGE price increase coming to the consumer for any product made of steel. I helped my neighbor load up 2600 pounds of scrap to take to the salvage yard and they paid him 130 bucks. Last year he would have been lucky to get 25.00. Being in the materials testing field, I have several customers that are under court order to provide parts to the Big 3 at old contractual prices that will NOT include a 60% increase in steel prices. Many of these Tier 1 and 2 part suppliers will be in big financial trouble by the summer if GM, Ford And DC don't accept price increases based on the world price of steel. Thank Clinton, NAFTA, and the Chinese for these steel price increases.
Last time I checked, if you sell a product for less than what it costs, YOU WILL BE HEADED FOR BANCRUPTCY!!!!!
